Reduce
Reduce your plastic footprint: buy in bulk, choose products with the least
packaging, look for products and packaging made from renewable resources, and
avoid plastic packaging and containers. Choose products that have the least
amount of disposable parts.

Recycle
Recycle what you can’t refuse, reduce or reuse. Recycling is a last option
because it uses energy, and there may not be a market for the refabricated
materials.

‘em short they said [the blogs] – a few random facts
about drink cans then - Making new aluminium
cans from recycled cans uses 20 times less energy than making cans from raw
materials. Just one recycled aluminium can saves
enough energy to run a television set for three hours! An aluminium can that is thrown away will still be a
can 500 years from now. There is no limit to the amount of times an
aluminium drink can can be recycled. There is a much quoted 60 day turn around
from recycle binned can to it being back on the supermarket shelf.
